Strong Towns 101 – Part 1!

If you joined Strong SacTown in the last month or even the last year and thought, “I like walkability. I like cities. But I don’t know for sure what makes Strong Towns different,” this event is for you!

We will go through part of the Strong Towns 101 course, watching videos, reading articles, and discussing together with facilitated questions. This will be Part 1 of two events to cover the entire course.

This event is open for anyone who wants to learn the basics of the Strong Towns approach and how to approach making Sacramento financially and socially resilient.

Don’t forget to join the July Member Mingle afterward at Sac City Brews from 5 PM-7 PM!
